Churrascarias?http://www.roadfood.com/Forums/rss-m124341.ashx(c) Roadfood.com Discussion Board30RE: Churrascarias? (lleechef)I've eaten in churrascarias in Boston and NY and thought they were reasonably good. Then I went to Brasil. The two best were in Belo Horizonte and Rio de Janiero. My goodness, there was more food than anyone could imagine! And it was AWESOME!http://www.roadfood.com/Forums/rss-m124341.ashxFindPost/124349Thu, 10 Mar 2005 22:38:23 GMTRE: Churrascarias?

There's four Brazilian restaurants (that I know of!), including a full-fledged churrascaria, within six blocks of our house!http://www.roadfood.com/Forums/rss-m124341.ashxFindPost/124348Thu, 10 Mar 2005 13:40:18 GMTRE: Churrascarias?

I hope he didn't bother trekkin out to Greenfields. If he was already in Manhattan, he was better off at Plataforma.http://www.roadfood.com/Forums/rss-m124341.ashxFindPost/124347Thu, 10 Mar 2005 09:56:26 GMTRE: Churrascarias?

(kozel)If you check the list of restaurants on this site for New York, you'll find Churrasqueira Bairrada in Mineola. While it is noted for it's chicken, I think they do offer the dining experience you are looking for. We're from Suffolk county and find the trek worth it. Find the listing and follow the link to their site. We prefer a Sunday afternoon dinner there, it gets very busy. Very family friendly and a great staff.http://www.roadfood.com/Forums/rss-m124341.ashxFindPost/124342Tue, 22 Feb 2005 08:11:34 GMTChurrascarias? (Adri)I am in NYC. I want to take my husband for his birthday to a Churrascaria and I am thinking about &quot;Churrascaria Plataforma&quot; or &quot;Greenfields&quot;. I have heard about &quot;Master Grill&quot; and another Churrascaria near to Central Park which name I don't remember. Does anyone have any recomendation or suggestion? Which restaurant is the best in terms of food, service and price? Thank you!!!http://www.roadfood.com/Forums/rss-m124341.ashxFindPost/124341Thu, 17 Feb 2005 17:01:37 GMT
